Abstract
In this thesis, the relationships between fixed-point problems, relaxation methods and Newton's method were investigated. It was proven that Newton's method was a modified relaxation method, whose mean value parameter approached the optimal parameter for relaxation method. Also, under some conditions on the derivative of the function whose fixed point was sought, a convergent relaxation sequence that converged to a fixed point of the function was introduced.
